Florida Keys Fishing Guide

When visiting the Florida Keys, especially for the first time, consider going out with a professional, at least once or twice. Even if you have skills when it comes to fishing, you will benefit from the knowledge of the experienced fishermen who fish these waters every day.

 
Consider hiring one of the Florida Keys fishing guides recommended here (to be added shortly!), or check for yourself  – many marinas and bait shops will have information and recommendations about local fishing captains and guides. Charter fishing is also available through just about every Keys marina, resort or listed in the local fishing newspapers and online.
 
After getting your fishing tips from the pros, take your own boat on the water and give it a try, or if you left your vessel at home, there are a variety of fishing boats available at Florida Keys boat rental facilities throughout the Keys.
 
Before you go, make sure that you get a fishing license, if you are not going out with one of the professionals and take a look at the Florida Saltwater Fishing Regulations so you will know for certain that the quantity and size of the fish you bring home will make the local officials happy!
